We think the sign on our office door is kind of clever, but we take it very seriously. “Always Open” means that we are available when you need us. We realize not everyone has the same schedule and that you may need to see a house, list some property, or simply ask a real estate-related question in the evening, during a weekend, or on a holiday. That is why we do everything we possibly can do to be available when you need help.
“Not Always Here” refers to the fact that there are times when everyone is out working, or home for the evening, or somewhere living life. That is why the office number (which is ALWAYS monitored) is on our door and each of our cell numbers is on our business card. If you call, text, or e mail any one of us, we will answer or get back to you very quickly.
At Johnson Hometown Realty, we realize that real estate transactions are big deals to everyone involved so we treat each one that way. And we know that real estate questions can be very important and time-sensitive so we will answer them promptly. Stop by and visit us anytime. We are’ Not always here”, but we are “Always Open” to help you in any way we can.

As of today, March 31, we are already 1/4 of the way through 2018. From a weather perspective, it is hard to call this a great year so far, but from a real estate point of view, it has been terrific!! Inventory in just about all areas and price ranges is solid. Interest rates are up a bit, but still favorable (See our most recent Blog post.) And buyers are active in most all segments of the market.
Following are some numbers from selected areas as of the end of March.
Residential Homes
City # listed # sold since 1/1/18
Hibbing 81 28
Chisholm 23 11
Mt. Iron/Buhl 13 7
Virginia 45 21
Aurora/HL/Biwabik 39 12
Waterfront residential – Currently listed – 229 (All areas) Sold since 1/1/18 – 24.
These are strong numbers indicating high real estate activity for this area during this time of year, and things are likely to pick up dramatically as the weather warms up. What these numbers mean for local sellers is this: “Don’t miss out! If you have something to sell, get it listed today!!” For help, for answers to your questions, and/or to list real estate of any kind, contact one of our Johnson Hometown Realty experts today!! 218-263-4411.
A couple of weeks ago, Danielle Randa-Sauter, one of our Johnson Hometown Realty experts and our Associate Broker, posted on Facebook about an unusual lake home showing she had participated in. The listing had a nearly half mile long driveway that had not been plowed all winter, so she and her buyers took snowmobiles in to view the property (which they liked very much, BTW).
This morning Danielle demonstrated another way we go the extra mile for our clients at Johnson Hometown Realty. A buyer living in Texas is very interested in a home located in the area, but they are unable to get up here to view it in person at this time. Danielle met friends of the buyer at the listing this morning and used FaceTime to give the buyers a real time virtual tour of the property inside and out with the friends present to help explain to the buyer exactly what they were seeing!
Four feet of unplowed snow? Not a problem! Thousands of miles of distance? Piece of cake! Whatever it takes to provide great service for our clients is what we are committed to do here at Johnson Hometown Realty!!!

A few days ago on this site I predicted a strong year for Iron Range real estate, and I stand by that prediction. But neither Nostradomus nor I, nor even Punxsutawney Phil would have predicted what has taken place over the past 2 weeks….In just the last 14 days, agents from Johnson Hometown Realty have listed more than a million dollars worth of property – $1,233,780, to be exact….Additionally, during the same short time period, this office has been involved in accepted purchase agreements that total more than a million dollars – specifically $1,163,500. All this during a traditionally “slow time” of the real estate year.
Judging by the number of buyers and sellers we are still continuing to work with, things will remain busy through the next few months, at the very least. Thank you again to those of you who are calling us, and referring us, and trusting us to help with your real estate decisions and transactions!!
